    With Martinelli going out the door and Jesus as well, this might open up minutes for Nwaneri and Dowman.

    Because aside from Antonio Nusa I don’t really see anybody else. And clubs know Arsenal will be “desperate”. So they will be asking top dollar.

          Agreed, but also Dowman AFAIK can’t play on the left, and if he makes a leap up, Saka’s gonna probably end up in midfield or on the left so we can play both at the same time.

              I mean he had a few last season right? or was that the season before?

              Also, the biggest concern I have about Saka in midfield is simply: what about Ødegaard then?

                Yeah, you’re right, he did have a few matches there last season. I see him as an eventual CAM replacement for Odegaard in a few years time. But by then either Dowman or Nwaneri (if he stays with us) might be pushing for that spot too.

    Spurs enquiring about Christian Pulisic is so on-point for them. Another over-hyped name to add to their Frankenstein’s monster of an under-achieving squad.
